[SOLVED] Gallery - using External Links on thumbnails?

[beherenow_uk]

Hi,

I have CMSMS 1.9.3, Gallery 1.4.4.

I have searched all over... Im trying to get the href of the thumbnails linking to an external link that I have entered into an additional field definition on each image instead of the thickbox or fancybox etc. I just can't get it to work...

In my Gallery template I have:

Code: Select all

{foreach from=$images item=image}
<div class="img">
<a href="{$fields.my_great_link.value}" title="{$image->titlename}"><img src="{$image->thumb|escape:'url'|replace:'%2F':'/'}" alt="{$image->titlename}" /></a>
</div>
{/foreach}

But i can't seem to be able to get the field definition (with alias 'my_great_link') to show the link that I entered into that field.

Please could someone help?

Thanks, Karl.

Ok I found it with a bit of trial and error.

Turns out I needed $image-> at the start of the tag. So my code for the template to call my specific custom field is:

Code: Select all

{$image->fields.my_great_link.value}

Hope this helps someone.

If you have any idea how to describe this better in the module help, I'd be glad to hear

Hi Jos,

I didn't know that was there. But you are correct, it explains it perfectly. Thanks.
